program POLICY
We’re sorry to inform you that we cannot register you for our 8 Cents in Jar programs. We understand your disappointment, and we share your feelings. As a growing grass-roots nonprofit organization, we face challenges like limited funding. Right now, our funders only support students in Orange County, FL. We are working hard to find new funders and increase our donor base (hint!) to reach out to more students in Central Florida’s neighboring counties.
​
​
​
That’s very kind of you to ask. 8 Cents in a Jar is an award-winning nonprofit organization that provides financial education for students in marginalized communities and helps them break the cycle of generational poverty. You can help their organization by:
​
-
Donating money to support programs and students. It costs $38.00 to support a student in one of our programs, and we don't like to charge students. Therefore, you can donate online by visiting www.8cents.org/donate
​
-
Volunteering your time and skills to assist program support and students. You can sign up to volunteer online at www.8cents.org/volunteer
​
-
Spreading the word about our mission and impact on your friends, family, and social media. You can follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
​
For any additional questions, email programs@8cents.org.
